1141. Prostatitis. A beagle suddenly could not control his bladder

"Urinary incontinence, not dysuria (dfficulty in urination), the father said. "Dribbling here and there."

ABDOMINAL PALPATION
I palpated a large firm mass, half the size of a golf ball in the posterior abdomen. It could be prostatitis or enlargement. A spherical lump 3cm x 3 cm. The dog reacted painfully (video).

20 ml air was pumped into the bladder to check for bladder stones and to define the thickness of the wall of the bladder. This was a case of urinary tract infection. After Baytril antibiotics, the dog could control his bladder the 2nd day. Neuter was advised.
